Praca nad własną biografią matek dzieci z niepełnosprawnością na przykładzie projektu pt. „Siła kobiet”
2021
W artykule opisany został projekt edukacyjno-socjalny pt. ,,Siła kobiet", skierowany do matek dzieci z niepełnosprawnością. Projekt miał tez charakter naukowo-badawczy, którego nadrzędnym celem było poznanie procesu uczenia się z biografii. Intencją autorki było zaprezentowanie działań realizowanych podczas projektu, które miały umożliwić jego uczestniczkom zaobserwowanie procesu uczenia się z własnej biografii w kontekście niepełnosprawności swojego dziecka. W pierwszej części artykułu zamieszczony został teoretyczno-metodologiczny opis projektu i jego metodyczne podstawy. W części analitycznej zaprezentowane zostały fragmenty transkrypcji w odniesieniu do teorii uczenia się sytuacyjnego i…
Toimijuutta toisella kielellä : kansainvälisten sairaanhoitajaopiskelijoiden ammatillinen suomen kielen taito ja sen kehittyminen työharjoitteluissa
2017
This dissertation focuses on the development of the agency and professional Finnish language skills of international nursing students studying in an English-medium degree program in Finland. The study draws on sociocognitive and ecological perspectives to examine the social nature of language and its use. This ethnographic theoretical-methodological orientation helps to analyze both subjectively experienced and collectively emergent factors. This longitudinal, multidisciplinary, and multimethodological study examines how the professional language skills and agency of international nursing students develop during their practical training. More specifically, the focus is on the situated and e…

Ordered fuzzy rules generation based on incremental dataset
2021
This paper proposes a novel approach for building transparent knowledge-based systems by generating interpretable fuzzy rules that allow for present dependences between quantitative variables by accounting for uncertainty and the dynamics of their values. In the approach, IF-THEN rules are used to show the conditional relationship between the ordered fuzzy numbers, which contain additional information about the tendencies of variables' value changes. This paper elaborates an approach of mining ordered fuzzy rules from numerical data included in an incremental database. This approach develops the ability to record uncertainty and its change in the context of rapidly changing data. In additio…
Crossing borders without travel : virtual exchange practices for students
2019
Virtual Exchange (VE) offers unique educational experiences at the intersection of the digital, the social, and the intercultural. It re-situates learning by creating an inclusive transnational learning space, where the participants move across and beyond cultural, curricular and individual boundaries. nonPeerReviewed
Visualising the temporal aspects of collaborative inquiry-based learning processes in technology-enhanced physics learning
2018
This study presents new ways of visualising technology-enhanced collaborative inquiry-based learning (CIBL) processes in an undergraduate physics course. The data included screen-capture videos from a technology-enhanced learning environment and audio recordings of discussions between students. We performed a thematic analysis based on the phases of inquiry-based learning (IBL). The thematic analysis was complemented by a content analysis, in which we analysed whether the utilisation of technological tools was on a deep-level, surface-level, or nonexistent basis. Student participation was measured in terms of frequency of contributions as well as in terms of impact. We visualised the sequen…
Developing Students Well-Being and Engagement in Higher Education during COVID-19—A Case Study of Web-Based Learning in Finland
2023
COVID-19 rapidly and extensively changed the normal everyday practices of societies, and there is no going back to the past. Universities also had to adapt and re-establish their normal routines, from policies to practices. In this article, we explore university students’ experiences of web-based learning, their well-being, and engagement during the pandemic. As a theoretical framework, we use the concept of the university student engagement inventory (USEI), which includes behavioral, cognitive, and emotional dimensions. The data were collected during the COVID-19 pandemic from university students (N = 35) via an online survey and analyzed using a thematic content analysis. According to th…
Pedagogical practices predicting perceived learning of social skills among university students
2022
The aim of this study was to examine what kinds of pedagogical practices predict perceived learning of university students’ social skills in classes where these skills are not set as learning outcomes. Data were collected from students of various disciplines by means of a questionnaire and then analysed using regression analysis. Students’ learning of social skills was explained by pedagogical factors related to 1) the modes of teaching and learning, 2) the features of the constructivist learning environment, 3) the features of the integrative pedagogy, and 4) the circumstances pertaining to the atmosphere of the learning environments involved in their studies. Factors belonging to three of…
"Service-learning" within Physical Education university degrees: Physical exercise for elderly people
2016
La sociedad actual demanda cada vez más una participación ciudadana con carácter social hacia colectivos en riesgo de exclusión social. La universidad, apelando a su responsabilidad social en el ámbito docente, debería facilitar dicha participación y fomentar en el alumnado la transmisión de valores tanto éticos como de concienciación hacia los demás. Un método pedagógico útil para cristalizar este compromiso firme con determinados colectivos que realmente lo necesitan es el «aprendizaje-servicio» (en adelante ApS). En este contexto, el presente estudio justifica la idoneidad y viabilidad de desarrollar proyectos de ApS con el colectivo de personas mayores dentro de los grados universitario…
Application of the Information Bottleneck method to discover user profiles in a Web store
2018
The paper deals with the problem of discovering groups of Web users with similar behavioral patterns on an e-commerce site. We introduce a novel approach to the unsupervised classification of user sessions, based on session attributes related to the user click-stream behavior, to gain insight into characteristics of various user profiles. The approach uses the agglomerative Information Bottleneck (IB) algorithm. Based on log data for a real online store, efficiency of the approach in terms of its ability to differentiate between buying and non-buying sessions was validated, indicating some possible practical applications of the our method. Experiments performed for a number of session sampl…
